Chapter 579: Chapter 577 Chuanchuan Makes a Phone Call_1

As the sound ceased, Ning Xiaoyou and the others from the Traditional Medicine Family pricked up their ears, preparing to eavesdrop.

Xia Ningxing had never intended to keep it a secret, so she didn’t purposely lower her voice, speaking indifferently, "Because I had experimented with a similar formula before, and the results were the same – the lab rats still died from the Golden Dagger Poison. I thought later that the reason there was no significant effect was definitely because the medication was not the right treatment."

"Her formula and mine from before are quite similar, essentially no different, and that’s why I was so sure."

"So that’s how it is!" The old doctors suddenly understood, but they couldn’t help glancing at Ning Xiaoyou, who had just said she was going to show Xia Ningxing what real Traditional Chinese Medicine was all about.

But what now!

This was just Xia Ningxing’s leftovers.

Thinking about it was quite ridiculous!

Ning Xiaoyou bit her lower lip in shame, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into, and her resentment for Xia Ningxing grew without reason.

Did she really have to embarrass her so blatantly!

How could this woman be so wicked!

Xia Ningxing didn’t pay Ning Xiaoyou any more attention but walked to the side and continued with her own drug experiments.

On Ning Xiaoyou’s side, a middle-aged man pulled her aside directly, and with sharpness and calculation in his eyes, he said to her, "Xiaoyou, this Xia Ningxing seems to have some skills..."

Before he could finish, Ning Xiaoyou couldn’t help but explode, her voice rising slightly, "Dad, how can you praise that woman!"

She looked at him incredulously.

As his daughter, she had hardly ever heard his praise growing up, so why should he now praise someone else.

Mr. Ning couldn’t help but frown and said to her in a low voice, "My child, why are you so petty? Do you still want to inherit the Ning Family and become the Family Head?"

"Of course, I do!" Ning Xiaoyou answered without hesitation, but she still had questions, "But what does that have to do with you praising Xia Ningxing?"

"How can it not be related! Silly child, sometimes you need to understand how to make use of everything and everyone around you that can be used!" Mr. Ning sighed and gave her an analysis:

"First of all, considering Xia Ningxing thought of this drug formula before you, it’s clear that her knowledge and talent in pharmacology are much higher than yours, which means you should find a way to get on good terms with her. You may gain a lot of insights from her formulas."

"If one day she develops the antidote for Golden Dagger Poison, you can even take the chance to steal it and claim it as your own. In the end, as long as it’s an experiment you conducted first, or you announced first, everyone will think the formula was your original idea!" When Mr. Ning spoke, his originally handsome face revealed a sinister and ruthless countenance, like a venomous snake ready to strike.

Ning Xiaoyou had never imagined her father could come up with such a cunning plan, brilliant, simply brilliant!

She also began to smile immediately, "Dad, you’re great!"

Mr. Ning curled his lips, "You’re my only beloved daughter, if I don’t treat you well, who else would I treat well? Yoyo, this food poisoning incident seems terrifying, but for you, it’s an opportunity to become famous and shine. You must grasp it well, defeat your cousin, and catch your aunt’s eye!"

"Once your aunt thinks highly of you, when it comes time to compete for the position of Family Head, your chances of winning will be much bigger!" he said yearningly.

If it weren’t for his lack of talent, and his son’s lack of talent, he would never pin his hopes on this spoiled and foolish daughter.

But he had no choice; she had the highest medical talent in the family.

Ning Xiaoyou responded, "Dad, I know, don’t worry, I will act according to circumstances!"

Following that, Xia Ningxing noticed that Ning Xiaoyou, who had previously been dismissive of her, suddenly became enthusiastic, often pulling her aside to discuss medical matters.

No good deed comes without a motive, either treacherous or thieving.

If it had been at any other time, Xia Ningxing might have played along with her like a cat with a mouse, but now she just wanted to come up with a solution as soon as possible and didn’t have time to entertain her.

So she flatly and almost cruelly told her, "Miss Ning, I’m very busy. Please don’t bother me with such foolish questions in the future!"

"What’s so stupid about the question I asked!" Ning Xiaoyou was already feeling frustrated because she had been getting the cold shoulder these past few days, and now hearing this made her suddenly quite angry, unable to hold back any longer.

"At least that’s how it looks to me!" Xia Ningxing dropped this remark and then turned to enter the laboratory.

Ning Xiaoyou couldn’t help but clench her fists tightly, glaring hatefully at her retreating figure.

Putting on airs, she’s just an actress after all!

However, this also made Ning Xiaoyou realize that becoming "friends" with Xia Ningxing was nearly impossible, after all, her guard was too high.

So Ning Xiaoyou simply stopped trying to please her, outwardly going about her own business while secretly keeping a close watch on Xia Ningxing.

Especially the prescriptions she wrote.

Unfortunately, Xia Ningxing didn’t make any significant progress either.

Useless!

And she’s supposed to have more talent than her?

Ning Xiaoyou couldn’t help but look down on her, thinking that her father had probably made a mistake this time.

Unable to improve the prescription, Xia Ningxing was also getting extremely anxious.

That evening, Xia Ningxing received a call from Lu Tingli.

"Lu," she called out subconsciously.

But instead of Lu Tingli’s voice, what came from the other end of the phone was the milky babble of a little one, murmuring in indistinct baby talk that was unclear, but sounded like calling out ceaselessly.

It seemed as if he was calling for mama.

"Chuanchuan!" Xia Ningxing’s expression softened instantly, and the impatience and frustration in her heart dissipated quite a bit.

Upon hearing a response, Chuanchuan’s cries became even louder.

"Chuanchuan, Mama misses you so much," Xia Ningxing said again.

This time, just as her voice faded, Lu Tingli’s voice came through from the other end.

"You little brat, daring to steal your old man’s phone, you’ve got some nerve!"

After complaining about the little one, Lu Tingli picked up the phone and put it to his ear, his tone gentle, "Ningxing."

"Lu, was it Chuanchuan who dialed the phone himself?" Xia Ningxing was astonished.

This little guy was too amazing, even making phone calls, and he wasn’t even two months old yet!

"Probably just hit it by accident," Lu Tingli believed the little guy coincidentally dialed Xia Ningxing’s number.

Otherwise, how could such a small child know how to make a call.

"No matter what, this shows that our Chuanchuan is very smart."

Xia Ningxing’s tone was full of pride.

Lu Tingli laughed and continued, "By the way, Ningxing, when I went to your study today, I found that the piece of wood there has blossomed."

The wood he referred to was the Medicinal Wood Xia Ningxing had dug up from the yard while she was pregnant, which had been unearthed along with a several-pound diamond.
